IOT – weldweb system
Quality assurance and cost reduction through real-time welding data
WeldWEB is an IoT-enabled welding monitoring system that continuously captures welding process data directly from the welding circuit. The system enables real-time visibility, traceability, and analysis of welding operations to improve quality control and reduce operational costs.
What Is the Need for IoT in Welding?
Modern welding requires high quality, consistency, and traceability, but traditional methods lack real-time visibility into critical parameters and WPS compliance. IoT-enabled welding monitoring solves this by capturing and analyzing live welding data, improving quality control, reducing rework, and enabling data-driven decisions.
key benefits
Continuously records critical welding parameters such as welding voltage, current, arc-on time, and shielding gas flow rate to ensure that welding remains within qualified WPS limits.
Provides real-time visibility and historical data analytics that support automation readiness, productivity improvement, and process optimization.
Enables verification that jobs were welded using approved consumables and qualified procedures, with complete deviation tracking and documentation.
SW WeldWEB provides a rapid return on investment through improved operational efficiency and reduction in rework-related costs.

Multi-Unit System Architecture
Scalable IoT architecture for centralized welding data collection
SW WeldWEB Multi-Unit Architecture is designed for scalable, centralized welding data monitoring across multiple machines and shop-floor locations. The system seamlessly integrates sensor boxes, collection units, and a central server to deliver real-time visibility, traceability, and control of welding operations.
How the Architecture Works
Sensor Boxes acquire real-time welding parameters directly from each welding machine
Collection Units aggregate data from multiple Sensor Boxes at the shop-floor level
Central Server consolidates welding data for monitoring, analytics, and reportin
Designed for Scalability
- One server supports up to 10 Collection Units
- Each Collection Unit connects to up to 4 Sensor Boxes
- A single system can monitor up to 40 welding machines
System Capacity Overview
Central server architecture connecting up to 40 welding machines via collection units and sensor boxes
Scalable design: 1 server → 10 collection units → 4 sensor boxes per unit → 1 machine per sensor
